This is how my machine is set up to work. Maybe GPT is ok, too, I don't
know, up to 2 TiB per drive, MBR does the job.

However, the OP should not randomly buy new hardware.
Replacing the CMOS battery that does cost less than 1,-€ and could
make a big difference and re-plugging the HDD and SSD cables would be
the only hardware related things, I would do. Enter the BIOS and check
if the voltage is ok. Using a multimeter, while the power supply isn't
under load is useless.
